Desmodium Sp. Or Alysicarpus ??<\/font><\/a> :\u00a06 posts by 4 authors. Attachments (2)<\/div>\n
Came across this herb around 20cm tall.<\/font>
Location: Near Tosheghar waterfall, Satara region.<\/font><\/div>\n
\n
\n

this is Desmodium alysicarpoides<\/i><\/p>\n

\n

Very nice flowers\u00a0… !
Can we have key identification\/differentiating characters to differentiate both genus Desmodium<\/i> and Alysicarpus<\/i>?<\/p>\n

\n

As per …, there will be a sterile terminal segment on the fruits in Alysicarpus<\/i> <\/font>and is lacking in Desmodium<\/font>. I think this demarcation will make our identification more easier than considering the the floral characters<\/p>\n
